Spring has sprung, and your local Chevrolet service center has all the tools and tips you need to keep your car going strong all summer long. If you don’t feel like clearing out your closet just yet, these three tips can help jumpstart your spring cleaning.
Wipe Away Winter Grime
After the winter, road grime and salt build-up on your car is inevitable. A full wax and wash will rid your vehicle’s exterior of debris and make it shine again.Â
Don’t forget to clean the engine bay and underside of the car, too. Built-up grime can create pockets of rust that’ll spell serious trouble down the line.
Your car’s interior deserves some love, too. Clean your car mats and vacuum up any dirt and salt that’s been ground into your cabin floor.
Clear out trash that’s accumulated in those hard-to-reach spots. End by freshening up your interior with antibacterial wipes and an air freshener.
Hit Reset on Your Windshield
 Worn windshield wipers are no match for springtime showers! And when it warms up this summer, older wiper rubber tends to oxidize and deteriorate under direct sunlight.Â
Now’s the time to check your wipers for winter wear and tear. Experts recommend changing the blades every six months to a year.
While you’re at it, why not check your windshield wiper fluid levels? Next time you’re running out, consider switching to a summer solution (lighter and often less expensive than winter blends).
